Burlington, VT, November 10, 2009: Lake Champlain Chocolates (LCC) is introducing a new Granola Breakfast Egg and Peanut Butter Breakfast Egg, perfect for cracking open Easter morning. No frying, scrambling, poaching or boiling. Over easy is more like it: these eggs are ready for eating right out of the package.
LCC gives you one more reason not to hold back on Easter morning. Homemade maple granola with almonds, oats and cranberries and blended with dark chocolate, the Granola Breakfast Egg is a healthy indulgence; no more sneaking around, you can savor that bite of chocolate while sipping your first cup of coffee right out in the open.
LCC’s Peanut Butter chocolate is also now available as a Breakfast Egg for all those peanut butter lovers. Kids are going to break into their candy first thing in the morning no matter what; LCC’s creamy, all-natural Peanut Butter Breakfast Egg provides parents with a wholesome, all-natural choice for their kids. (No nasty orange or yellow dyes in this egg!)
“We wanted to come up with something fun and different for Easter this year. Having a chocolate “Breakfast Egg” allows our retailers to be creative in terms of displaying the product. We’re encouraging them to perhaps display the eggs near the dairy case or with other breakfast must haves such as pancake mix or maple syrup,” says Allyson Myers, Director of Sales and Marketing.
Wrapped in bright orange (Peanut Butter Breakfast Egg) and green (Granola Breakfast Egg) foils and in a size large enough to share, the Breakfast Eggs are ideal as a special luxury on their own or placed in a basket along with other Easter treats. Individual eggs retail for $7.95.
Lake Champlain Chocolates will continue to offer its popular foil wrapped chocolate carrots, Treasure Surprise Egg gift box, cream filled eggs and of course their handcrafted classic chocolate bunnies in milk, dark and white chocolate.
